Tokyo Twitter Type Map

What Do You Now?What Do You Do Now? is a Japanese Google Map mash-up that allows users to leave short 'Twitter' type messages on top of a Google Map. It is possible to leave a message on any location on the map and to respond to comments left by other users.

To leave a message the user just clicks on the map and an information window opens with a form to enter the message. The user can choose from a number of different types of map marker, e.g. a heart or a cross. The user can also define the colour of the font. When the user has finished typing their short message they press submit and a marker appears on the map.
